But overall I really enjoyed the session today, and I would want to join again!

I worked closely with Jessica for about 6-9 months on using brainwave therapy to help balance my…read moremental health. I suffered from manic mood swings, and depression, and I was searching for an alternative to medication my therapist suggested I take. I was skeptical at first as I always am with alternative and conventional practices alike. The first few sessions I didn't notice much of a change. One day I was dealing with several stressful occurrences that would have normally sent me spiraling into a deep pit of negative thoughts and worst case scenario predictions of my future. I slowly worked myself through the events and on the other side I realized I hadn't spiraled out of control with my thoughts. My manic mood swings have basically disappeared and my depression doesn't spiral down as deep as it used to. It takes some time to see results, and it hasn't been a cure all. The sessions lasted 30 minutes, several times a week, so some time commitment is required. But you get to watch a movie while you sit there so It was actually very relaxing. It has been about 4 months since I last had a session with Jessica and I'm still experiencing the positive results from her brainwave therapy sessions. It has been a better option for me than becoming dependent on and dealing with the possible negative side effects of prescription medication.

Had a great experience getting a personal yoga session with Debra. We started off with some…read morerestorative and finished off with some fun aerial tricks. I'm not new to yoga but even with the knowledge I did have, Debra expanded my practice more than most have over the past few years. Great pointers, adjustments, tips and just overall education on the movement into the pose, and not just rushing in to the pose. Yoga is called a practice for a reason. If you take the time to learn the poses correctly, your body learns where to go, like a bungee cord. It's also hard to unlearn bad habits, which I'm excited to do with Debra! The light therapy massage table is also a must try, felt so good on my spine and the heat was perfect! #yogaforlife #yogis #yogapose

About three months ago I had developed pain in my left arm that was so severe it literally kept me…read moreup at night. The slightest movement was excruciating. Then to make matters worse, a similar pain moved into my right arm as well. I tried seeing my GP about the pain; I tried painkillers; I tried a chiropractor (10 visits) to no relief whatsoever! Finally, I made an appointment with Carla Gorsky at The Peaceful Heart. I was feeling so much better after two visits, but after three visits the pain was gone! Carla was able to really explore all the muscles and tissue surrounding my arm/shoulder and relieve so much pressure and pain. About two weeks ago I tweaked my knee, making it very difficult to bend my knee. I asked Carla to take a look and see what she could do. I left that session with much more movement and a lot less pain in my knee. Today (the day following our session) I was able to go to work in a busy preschool (which requires a lot of bending, kneeling, sitting, standing, etc) with ease. I can still feel a little twinge in the knee and I know I don't have full range of motion yet, but I know that I'm on the right track to wellness! Words cannot express how grateful I am that I found Carla! I was feeling so frustrated with my health and she has given me so much hope. Lastly, I'd like to say that Carla is just so delightful to work with. I am very self-conscious, and she (and her adorable dog, Charlie) made the whole experience very comfortable. Her home is peaceful and she really listens to what you're saying. I cannot recommend Carla Gorsky and The Peaceful Heart more!

It has been more than a year since I have been living with my parents every day. I went to hospital, but my depression was not overcome and I still wanted to die. One day, I began this meditation with my mother's recommendation. At first my depression gradually disappeared. After two months, my mind was lightened and joy came to my heart. The hospital said that depression was completely gone. Six months later, I realized why I should live and live in the future. I think this is a miracle in my life and I want to share my experiences with others. I would like to sincerely recommend this meditation to those who have lost their life goals like me. A miracle will happen first in your heart!!

One of two Sinhalese Buddhist temples in the Chicagoland area, and the only one with a monk that…read morespeaks fluent English. Like a lot of immigrant places of worship, there are two main groups who come here. There are Sri Lankan Americans like me who are here for family and ethnic reasons, and there are American converts who are here seeking. I recommend this temple for both. We don't think of a dead body as very significant, when someone dies, it's a part of life and another turn in the wheel of life, samsara. Life is essentially, impermanence. We handle grief by almsgiving in honor of the deceased, called dhanas (don-nays) which I held both here and in Sri Lanka. The head monk, Bhante Sujantha helped me understand the traditions of my people at the same time he helped me immeasurably with the complex feelings I had after my father's passing (he suffered a lot, I was unable to ease his suffering, American hospitals are not a very good place to die, and we didn't have the best of relationships). The Blue Lotus Temple is also a good place if you're searching, they have classes that will help you, whether you're looking for an alternative to American Protestantism, or you want to learn how to meditate and reduce anxiety. Unlike many other religions, Buddhism does not require you leave your original faith behind, it's more about kindness and mindfulness (in its original meaning). Find Bhante Sujantha on Tik Tok or Instagram, he's better than formal therapy or a good addition to professional sessions. If you can visit the temple, if you can afford to donate, you should also know that Bhante Sujantha is a terrible businessman, but I guess that's how the good clerics are, right? I know about the classes because I came early to my first Dhana and I listened to Sujantha teach, or rather try to teach mindfulness and compassion. Then, after they were done and politely asked to leave the chapel part of the temple for my service, about half the class stayed in and talked very loudly even after having my service started (being streamed live to relatives in Sri Lanka, England, Canada, and Australia) ironically going on about mindfulness and themselves. You can lead an elephant to water, but you can't make her drink I guess. Life is a journey, don't travel alone.
